Thanks for the report!

Comparing m68k to the other two architectures that use
GENERIC_LIB_MULDI3 (csky and xtensa), and to microblaze (which has
its own arch/microblaze/lib/muldi3.c), that don't trigger this error,
the difference is that m68k uses inline assembler in its umul_ppmm()
implementation. I don't see anything that's wrong with it, though.

Perhaps this is an issue with sparse?
